Everyday, situation is changing.
Hijiori was empty 4 days ago, and now it's PACKED!
Many people are arriving mostly from Miyagi and Fukushima everyday. 2 big groups have arrived today from Fukushima and Miyagi. One of them had his leg broken... :-(
Yesterday it was snowing so much! Since Pacific coast area of Tohoku doesn't have much snow, many people were surprised and even anxious to see so much snow in Hijiori. They were saying, "Is this normal? Are we gonna be Ok here?". Today I overheard one of them talking on the phone, saying "Here, the snow walls are as high as 10m!" which is a bit of an exaggeration... :-)
Yesterday, one of the gas station in Okura mura sold gas, and this is what happened...
Super long queue. It was more than 1km.
My father went to get gas despite our protest, and a couple of hours later came home in vain :-(
The train is not running so Shinjo Sation was empty.
In Hijiori, we still have food at the shops. Not a lot, but I'd say enough so far. This is a picture of my nephew 3 seconds before being scolded for poking Tofu :-)
This Tofu is made in Hijiori, so we have plenty of Tofu, which is great!
My neighbors are also giving us food, knowing that we have many victims in our Ryokan. Solidarity in Hijiori
Today at Kaneyama store, they were able to buy in Nisshin Cup Noodles for the first time after the earthquake!!
I had never felt so happy to see these precious cup noodles...
Kaneyama shop was also full of people evacuated from Miyagi and Fukushima. Many of them came to Hijiori without much stuff. Some were looking for underwear, which Hijiori shops don't have...
Bread shelf is still empty.
But it says that Bread and cake will arrive tomorrow !!
But the shop owner said only 40 % of what they have ordered will arrive. Good enough!!
This is the picture of my nephew flying to the bus stop to welcome his aunt, my sister who came back to Hijiori today from Sendai.
She is working for an American apparel company. Apparently, she and all her colleagues were ordered to evacuate from Sendai immediately...
All American citizens are leaving Japan.
We are very confused, what to believe about nuclear power plant.
Some Japanese are also leaving Japan. So far, we don't have a plan to leave here.
I've been keeping myself busy everyday.
I just hope that tomorrow will be a better day for many people who has been affected by the earthquake!!
